Demanding sister's inheritance, 1927
Includes a petition by Muhammad Sadiq Farsh-furush (rug seller) to the Majlis regarding his sister's bestowal of her paternal inheritance to him. Although her husband, Muhammad Rahim Najjar (carpenter) had initially agreed to give his wife's belonging to Muhammad Sadiq, he later disputed Muhammad Sadiq's claim.

There is also a letter from the Majlis to Muhammad Sadiq which instructs him to follow his claim via the Ministry of Justice.
